    Yeah, it is really fun, and the parties in the streets feel safe and crazy, just have to keep your smarts about you to make sure you stay safe. You should come, but only goes until Tuesday, so manybe next year.

    Well actually my exams are always on around February, so maybe New Orleans ain’t in my stars during my school days, but it is certainly one of the places I want to and must visit.

  Aiva, we are trying to live life to the fullest. We figure this is our time, after years of working and raising families we have this opportunity to do somethings for ourselves, so we are.

    I don’t know about hotel/airport recycling bins. That’d great!!!
    (alternately, you could cut strands open, hot glue them together, and use them as xmas tree decorations!)

    We would, but only have so much space in our suitcases, plus I’m talking, if we tried we could get enough for 150 Christmas trees easily, they really toss the necklaces, like by the dozens and handful for hours
